The only 11" Black Acrylic I have is a Renzo B (STILETTO over ITALY), but it's got brass bolsters. A very different look.

...Finally found the 9" and 11" Frank Bs in Ebony Wood 6/22/18...still quite different than acrylic, but classic...

Black Acrylic in Dagger Grind Frank B added 6/28/18:

Ar;em:
One option is to do what I did. Find the knife you want and have the scales replaced with black acrylic. There are a number of people here on the forum who could do that for you.
I don't know if I'd want to do it to a Latama but replacing the scales on a Frank B. wouldn't be too sacrilegious.

JulesVane, are those brass bolsters or titanium? Seems that brass would have a very short wear-life as a swivel bolster. But maybe the brass is Muntz Metal or some other brass alloy that may be heat treated.
(If you decide that this knife needs to be eliminated from your collection, let me know.)

DonC, I have been considering the custom scale replacement option. If all else fails, that could be a route that I take while I hunt. The hunt, though, is a large part of my enjoyment (sometimes). Come to think of it, "finding" is quite enjoyable also.

Thanks to the generosity of a fine member of the forum, I have found exactly the knife for which I was searching. MarkT93Cobra has given me the opportunity to acquire an excellent specimen of a Renzo Beltrame 11" bayonet blade, black acrylic handle, swivel bolster stiletto. To me, this configuration of switchblade is a classic.
Again, thanks Mark.

(I don't take good pictures) The blade finish is very bright and the handle is flawless and shiny.

Really nice Arlen. I see you are getting hooked. If you like black scales, check out the dark (black) horn on my AGA. Variation of black scales.

Nice arlen! I'm glad you and MarkT93Cobra could work out your search. Truly still hard to believe how scarce a simple solid black scaled 11" stiletto really seems to be. Not as "common" as one would think. Classic!
